The challenge

Launch a full food delivery business — not just an app mockup

DropEat needed an end-to-end platform: customers ordering from nearby restaurants, kitchens managing menus and orders, and delivery partners moving food with live visibility — all synced through one reliable backend.

Multi-sided product

Customer experience, restaurant operations and delivery logistics had to work together — not as separate tools.

Real-time expectations

Users expect live order status and map tracking from click to doorstep — anything less feels broken.

Payments in India

Smooth checkout with trusted payment gateways and order confirmation flows users already know.

Cross-platform reach

Both iOS and Android from one codebase to move fast without maintaining two native apps.

DropEat Flutter app — food delivery with cart and live order tracking

The solution

Full-stack food delivery platform on Flutter + Node.js

TechLapse delivered a customer-facing Flutter app, restaurant management portal and delivery workflow — connected via a central API with real-time order updates and GPS tracking.

Customer app

Browse restaurants, cart, checkout and order history — polished UI on iOS and Android.

Restaurant portal

Menu management, incoming orders, prep status and kitchen workflow in one dashboard.

Live tracking

Real-time GPS order tracking via Google Maps so customers see progress to delivery.

Razorpay payments

Secure payment gateway integration for smooth in-app checkout.

Order notifications

Status updates across the order lifecycle — placed, preparing, out for delivery, delivered.

Central API

Node.js backend with PostgreSQL — single source of truth for menus, orders and users.
